4. I practiced what I preach.....

My husband had a Vasectomy a week after our 2nd child was born. It was one of the best gifts he had ever given me. It helped me to be a better parent, and we were able to afford things for our kids like vacations, Catholic school, etc.

My daughter went to Planned Parenthood as a teenager to avoid getting pregnant. My son was a little more stubborn, and thus became a father at 20. He is 41 now and wished he had listened to me. But nor does he regret the great daughter he had, which is great. She uses PP as her go to for Birth Control because she is no where ready to be a parent, being a child of divorce herself. She knows all too well that a stable marriage with someone you love is vital for bringing a child into the world.
